| description | The principle of "hierarchy" is one of the fundamental principles governing the universe and since human craft is the factor of human communication with the universe, so this principle is one of the basic principles used in traditional works and arts. Among these, mosques, as the most important manifestation of Islamic architecture and due to their special spiritual subject matter, have complex hierarchical systems that address the deeper layers of human existence and provide the ground for excellence and perfection.The issue that can be raised in this discussion is how the principle of hierarchy in architecture is influenced by the hierarchy of the universe. Since this principle plays an important factor in the evolution of human excellence in architecture, it can be used as a critical tool to improve the condition of mosques today.For this purpose, this research with descriptive-analytical method and content analysis, by collecting information in the field and library using transcendent wisdom, after examining and recognizing the factors affecting the emergence of the principle of hierarchy in the universe, how these factors in The architecture of mosques and their impact on the manifestation of this principle in Iranian mosques and in order to better understand, analyzes their examples in Goharshad Mosque. The results of this study indicate that unity in plurality and essential movement of the basic principles of Iranian wisdom, are among the factors affecting the manifestation of the principle of hierarchy in the universe and the architecture of Iranian mosques. |
